There is no restriction of age when you can work on finding the best version of yourself. As age progresses we become more stubborn and our thoughts and philosophy tend to stick with us hard. However one should never stop working on oneself. There is always new to learn. We should always welcome a fresh perspective. Here are some of the points which can help you to find the best version of yourself.
Devote your one hour on yourself
As we grow, we are surrounded by responsibilities. We are always busy taking care of family members, earning money. There is something or the other always on our mind which take our time and efforts. I always find people telling me how fast the year has come to an end and how fast the time is moving. In this fast pace life, we have to pause and always ponder what are doing our ourselves. This should be done everyday.
Ideally we should dedicate an hour on ourselves, where we meditate or analyse our behaviour. Are there any anger issues? Are we dealing with any anxiety? Is something very trivial bothering us? Reflect the state of your life.
We should also work on our dreams. And have a dedicated journal where we track the progress of our dreams. Dreams can be any project that excites you. Work on it as a hobby and whenever you find time. You might be a good writer and have thought of publishing your book. Whatever be your dream, work on it.
Also, during this one hour, decide how are your actions will be in coming hours. Prepare yourself mentally, emotionally to work on any challenging situation. Pump all your energy for the day ahead.
Hence it makes sense to reserve the early part of the day for yourself.
Show your highest standard of compassion, kindness to others
Try not to judge others. We all are having our own battle. Instead as you carry out everyday, try to empathies with people around you. It might be difficult at the beginning but since now you have decided to be the best version of yourself, you will achieve it. With each passing day, you will feel more compassion in your heart.
Show your highest standard of excellence at your work
Remember your first day at your workplace. There was so much energy and ideas within you. No work was mundane but a learning opportunity. Have that outlook everyday at your work. Don’t crib about office politics, your boss, your insensitive coworkers. Just be your best and do your best.
Follow ABC
My Guruji says to always follow ABC rule in your life.
A: No Abusing
B: No Blaming
C: No Criticizing
When one does any sort of Abusing, Blaming or Criticizing, we are increasing our bad karmas. Hence we have to be very careful in our everyday acts and speech.
Awake yourself mind, body, emotions.
Finally we have to awake our mind, body and emotions.
We have to check our thoughts on regular basis. As we make efforts to purchase only the best for one’s house; same way we should also make sure to fill our mind with best thoughts.
A healthy mind only dwells in healthy body. One should exercise daily, eat healthy, drink lots of water, take fresh air and sunlight.
Finally one should remove any sort of anger that we have been carrying through life. Also, our thought process should be positive. There are two ways to look at any problem. One should always deal it with positive outlook.
